Open Access Week 2018 Event "Paywall: The Business of Scholarship" In-Person
Come along to a special free screening of Paywall: The Business of Scholarship, a documentary which focuses on the need for open access to research and science and questions the rationale behind the $25.2 billion a year that flows into for-profit academic publishers. It also examines the 35-40% profit margin associated with the top academic publisher Elsevier and looks at how that profit margin is often greater than some of the most profitable tech companies like Apple, Facebook, and Google. (Running time 104 minutes)
You are welcome to BYO lunch.
